Post Is this considered circumcision?

I'm a bit confused as to what exactly is curcumcision. I mean I know that is the removal of the foreskin, but how about if only a small piece of foreskin is removed. Here's what I mean: If the small strip of skin that attaches the head to the foreskin(just below the opening)is cut, is that considered to be a circumcision?

I'm not circumcised and I strongly feel that if I didn't have my foreskin attached to the head, my penis wouldn't be so sensitive. During sex that strip of foreskin pulls back and forth on the head alot and thus increasing sensitivity. Am I making any sense?
Does anyone here feel the same way?

I've even tried to test this out during masterbation. I've taken myself close to the point of no return while masterbating using my foreskin like I've always done. I then stop and pull my foreskin all the way back. I lubricate my penis and hand and I start to masterbate without using the foreskin. Although I was nearly about to ejaculate a few seconds ago, the feeling of wanting to ejaculate went away immediately and I can keep stroking it for a long time without ejaculating. It builds up to it but it feels like I'm in control more because I can slow the strokes down a bit and it goes back down. The other way using the foreskin, once I'm near, is almost impossible for me to not ejaculate.

Like I said before, if just that strip of skin is removed, is that considered circumcision or is there another name for it?

Would cutting that piece of skin help with reducing sensitiviy and thus prevent premature ejaculation (able to last longer than 5 min.)?

That strip of skin is called the frenulum. Cutting it would be a frenulectomy and is not a circumcision.

Why don't you try stretching the frenulum so it doesn't pull as much first? I wouldn’t consider 5 minutes premature ejaculation. Premature ejaculation is when you come almost straight away, like as you enter. I'm cut but sometimes I come that fast and sometimes I last much longer (like this morning ). How long you last is much more to do with what's in your head than any small point of your anatomy. The frenulum is considered by some to be one of the main sources of sexual pleasure so think twice and explore other strategies before surgery. Have you had much sex with a woman or is this conclusion that the frenulum is the problem based mainly on masturbation?
